This started as an experiment that I’m pretty happy with, so I’ve decided to continue using it and I’ll be enhancing it as time goes on.
Simply put, I use it as an electronic scrapbook of ideas I have, news articles I read, and internet sources that I find that make good examples for the material I cover on these merit badges:
Citizenship in the Community
Citizenship in the Nation
Citizenship in the World
American Heritage
Down the right side are categories that will get you to the information you’re looking for quickly.
“Categories” breaks down the posts into the merit badge requirement(s) they relate to.
“Tags” are keywords identifying what the subject of a post is about. For example, if you’re looking for my posts on speeches for the Citizenship in the Nation speech requirement (requirement #6), click on the word ’speeches.’
“Requirements” are links to merit badge requirements listed on the net, also some of the merit badge books themselves and worksheet packets.
“Resources” are links to websites that have broader interest and can help you with information you need to complete requirements. For example, links to the National Park Service or list of Washington, D.C. embassies.
Happy hunting! Stay and browse awhile!
